Hi, love.

I go about my days with purpose. I have friends who make me smile on a daily basis. I have dogs that make me laugh until I howl. I live a life that makes me thankful for everything that I have. But nonetheless I miss that husband of mine. He had me set in his sights pretty soon after I first met him. His effeminate snowflake fleece made me walk the other way (well, I was at art school, where boys were fashionable, I mean seriously). But Forrest was sweet. And he was persistent. And he proposed to me (three years before he really proposed to me) with this plastic ring. Today I found a drawing of it, and I think my heart just melted.

Awwwwww...SO sweet. For a while there, J and I were married but didn't live together yet, since we had to wait till he could retire and move here, so BOY do I relate to those sweet memories that make you smile...

This is such a sweet post, thanks for sharing the story =) I think it beats my story of my wife practically robbed the engagement ring off me while having the Mario Kart DS music playing in the background
